Las Vegas’ Riviera Announces Sports Handicapping Contest

The Riviera Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas will host the March $1 Million Tournament Challenge, a sports handicapping contest featuring 100 percent payback from the entry fees, with a $1 million prize pool (based on 1,000 total entrants). Entries for the handicapping contest are $1,000.

Contestants select winning teams and point totals listed on the daily contest sheet, totaling 64 selections -- 48 sides and 16 totals -- over the course of the four days of the first two rounds. The winners will be announced on March 18, after the final game of the day. The first 100 entrants who sign up and pay prior to Feb. 13 will receive $100 off their entry fee and reserved seating in the viewing area.

In addition, various other activities take place in between games and during breaks, including a beer pong competition, a free-throw shooting contest, and a three-on-three Bikini Basketball Tournament.

The contest is open to anyone 21 years of age or older. A valid ID must be presented upon contest registration, as well as when daily selections are made. The registration deadline is March 15 at 8 a.m. Daily contest sheets will be available on March 14. To sign up, visit the Riviera or call 800-637-5687.
